One Response to “Letters to the Editor”

I would like to commend the Town of Mattapoisett Highway Department and Engineering Department for their choice of construction companies involved in the drainage and repaving projects on lower North Street and Barstow Street. The work began in mid-May and was completed on September 6, 2012. Both construction companies, Gravity Construction & I.W. Harding, were highly professional and genuinely concerned with the wellfare of the residents of both streets. The work involved was a massive undertaking and, though sometimes a bit inconvenient for parking, etc., was completed with minimal complications. The end result is obvious in our beautiful new sidewalks, curbs, and resurfaced streets.
